It's almost like having an after holiday let-down once Gen Con passes, knowing we have to wait months and months until the next local convention option...until now! Chicago has a new gaming convention this October- Valor Con! The name alone is enough to generate excitement.

Valor Con will be in Chicago, IL October 16th-18th and will feature: video/computer games, tabletop games, live action games and vendors and exhibits! We will definitely be checking this one out. Passes are on sale right now and they are also calling for volunteers for all sorts of convention related assistance.

Volunteering can not only earn you a pass but a highly coveted, Valor Con convention shirt, which we're told adds +2 to Charisma!
